This Is truthful and most accurate
description of how woman acts when
she first puts on bathing suit and ap,
pears before the world in it, AT first
sight of it she giggles convulsivcly and
filters out:
"Oh, l never, ncrer can let anybody
sec me with that on"
"Oh, yes you can. Put it on" cries
some hardened companion who has
been in before. every body wears

But she does all the same, giggling
frantically, until she reaches the water
when she shrieks out:
ooh, it's cold! Ugh! Hec! he! II
look so awful when Pm wet! O-o-o-o-h
it's dreadfully cold"
And when she comes out and |!
dressed again she bores every body
she knows by saying over and ovel
again:
"Oh, think it's just lovely to battle

DIR. Cyrus Edison says that the best
and most wholesome summer drink is
cola water; it should be freely used,
and should be cooled by keeping it on
ice, and not by putting ice into it. A
few bottles placed in the refrigerator
every morning would be sufficient to
supply the family during the day.

and represented myself as a tailor and
in this way was ushered into Mr.. Wander

said:
"Mr Vanderbilt, in order to get to see

of charity. Instead of coming and measur-
ing you for suit of clothes have come to

through had Mr.. Vanderbit's check for a
neat sum besides taking glass of wine and
a cigar with him. Up to the time of his
death he always renewed his subscription
and his sons now do it for him.

money from up to year or so ago was r.

became SO well known that the man was ac-

his manners that any one who desires can
get an audience with him, and there is al
ways a lot of beggars about his office,
hence he was compelled to make rule only
TO subscribe to organized charity. Now,
if you would see the subscription books of
the various charitable institutions YOU
would see that New York's rich men are
pretty well represented upon them"

A HANDSOME INCOME.
A Beggar Who Makes as Much as S1o,-
900 Year.


New York, May 2S-In one of the hand
soonest fats in New York resides a man
who is professional begger. By following
this occupation he has an income of S10,-
600 per year. He goes into good society and
is one of the greatest wits and practical
jokers in town, so that his company is much
sought after. He does not go providing about
the streets, however, begging a quarter or
whatever he can get. He would disdain
to accept less than 800, still he manages to
collect $4,000 every year. He used to be
drummer for one of the largest dry goods
houses here, and an excellent one he was
too, but he found he could make more
money begging. He never asks money from
any one but rich people, and believe If any
other kind of peoplewere to offer him money
he would refuse it. He does not, however,
beg directly for himself, but for the New
York Childrens Home. The head of the
dry goods firm with which he was formerly
engaged is the President of this Institution;
and, knowing that his salesman was noted
for his cheek he asked him one day during
a dull season if he would circulate among
the millionaires and get up subscriptions for
the maintenance of the institution. He
agreed, and the first day he started out he
collected more than it was expected he
could do in a week. The result was
that he was offered a certain percentage Of
what he collected, and he found that it
would pay him TO keep at it all the timo.
He says at first it was very trying work,
but now he has it so systematized that ON
the whole he rather likes the business, aside
from what money there is in it. "My ex-
pelience,n he said, ''shows me that the aver
age New York millionaire is much more
liberal man than the public supposes The
only difficulty is in seeing these men and
presenting your claims. | worked six
months before was able TO see Jay Gould.
During that time went TO his office on an
average Of twice day, and my efforts were
in vain.
FINALLY, caught him on ain elevated
train, and, seating nyself beside him, he
was obliged TO listen 10 me. j asked for
$500. He told me to call on him the next
day and he would give me his check for the
amount ! went TO his Office, but, notwith-
standing stated what had passed between
the millionaire and myself, was refused
admittanco TO his private room. | then
made up my mind that Mr. Gould had
thrown me of, but / was determined to
watch him again. / found out where he
kept his private bank account and got
check on that institution, which filed out
for $500. A month afterwards l ran across
Mr.. Gould again in the Windsor Hotel. he
did not remember me, but recalled our
conversation, and be again told nc 70 call
